Foster Gamble « Thrive Debunked By SlayerX3 One of the central passages of Thrive is a section often referred to as “Follow the Money,” which Thrive fans treat as some sort of slogan. This section contains Foster Gamble and others’ views on fractional reserve banking, the Federal Reserve, the economic crisis, and conspiracy theories related to these. This article debunks those ideas. Fraction Reserve Banking Disclaimer: Before the Wikipedia bashing begins, I’m using Wikipedia for two reasons: (1) Simplicity, and (2) it works well for summaries of information, even though I will provide further sources and more detailed information links than Wikipedia can provide. PS: This part of the movie is incredibly complicated for anyone involved here to deal with, as given that most people don’t understand how economy and politics work by themselves, much less together, unless you’re well-versed in mathematics, economics or political science. What is Fractional Reserve Banking? Does it really “create money out of nowhere?” Ms. G.
Düğümküme Why Remix Culture Needs New Copyright Laws Las nuevas reglas de la creatividad Estoy obsesionado con la creatividad, con el proceso que tiene lugar en la mente de cara a obtener ideas innovadoras, y sobretodo con la forma de potenciarlo para que se engrane en otros procesos innovadores como por ejemplo el tecnológico (tecnocreatividad). Por eso me ha encantado este artículo de Wired: The new rules of Creativity. En él se describen nueve reglas para potenciar la creatividad, sin duda alguna uno de los diferenciales que buscamos en compañeros de equipo o de cara a nuevas incorporaciones laborales. Antes de meternos en faena vamos a recorrer un poco el universo que rodea la creatividad. Creatividad e inspiración La creatividad consiste en la generación de nuevas ideas y conceptos, que terminan o deberían terminar en soluciones concretas y originales, desde aplicaciones hasta esculturas, basadas en ideas y conceptos ya conocidos. Hay características que suelen ser comunes a los perfiles creativos, aunque algunas estén más potenciadas y otras se noten menos. 1. 1. 2.
Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media (1992) is a documentary film that explores the political life and ideas of Noam Chomsky, a linguist, intellectual, and political activist. Created by two Canadian filmmakers, Mark Achbar and Peter Wintonick, it expands on the ideas of Chomsky's earlier book, Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media, which he co-wrote with Edward S. Herman. The film presents and illustrates Chomsky's and Herman's thesis that corporate media, as profit-driven institutions, tend to serve and further the agendas of the interests of dominant, elite groups in the society. A centerpiece of the film is a long examination of the history of The New York Times' coverage of the Indonesian occupation of East Timor, which Chomsky says exemplifies the media's unwillingness to criticize an ally of the elite. Companion book[edit] Mark Achbar edited a companion book of the same name. See also[edit] External links[edit] Multimedia[edit] References[edit]
Etohum - Girişimci - Yatırımcı Buluşması Education Remix: Unlocking Creativity to Boost Learning December 1, 2010 By: John Orlando, PhD in Teaching with Technology When considering the major advances in communication — from the printing press, to the telephone, to the television — each medium shared the characteristic of allowing either one-to-one communication or one-to-many communication. People are just starting to understand the fundamental transformation in communication that has occurred during the past five years, and some educators don’t believe in the power that social media can bring to learning. One example is through the new remix culture. While fun to create, a remix also can be used as a learning activity. Creating the video was a learning activity. Remixing is also a fundamentally creative process, as the creator must develop links between two different topics. One simple way to use remixing in your classes is to provide extra credit to students who develop a short video that reinterprets some part of popular culture in a way related to the class subject.

TecnoCreatividad, the next generation El viernes pasado impartí un taller en Valencia sobre la TecnoCreatividad, un término muy nuevo que está comenzando a sonar. La verdad es que fue muy curioso porque la invitación para darlo vino a través de The College of Everything, una escuela tecnocreativa (que viene del mundo creativo), y yo dirijo Digital Noise, una agencia tecnocreativa (que viene del mundo tecnológico) centrada en el desarrollo de aplicaciones sociales e I+D+i, y de la que os hablaré dentro de poco. Juntos generamos una buena convocatoria, un buen ambiente y creo que un buen contenido, por lo menos práctico, y la gente salió con fuerzas de querer indagar en este fascinante mundo que aúna la tecnología con la creatividad. Fue un curso privado (¡que se repetirá seguro!) Tecnocreatividad. Cross Media. Internet de las cosas. Twine (proyecto que salió de Kickstarter) Talking trees Tweeting fridge Motivación. Espero que por lo menos os haya abierto la curiosidad sobre este fascinante mundo de la TecnoCreatividad.
